However, this setup adds complexity and cost. [In In sticking to] four-stroke cycles for both combustion and pneumatic operations.the intake and exhaust valves remain camshaft-driven and only the charge valve, which connects the cylinders to the pressure tank, is fully variable.

Low-Cost Retrofit Emissions Control in Off-Road Sources”, $69,999. This SBIR Phase I project will apply certain aspects of Eltron’s new catalytic technology for reagent-free abatement of nitrogen oxides (which provides both direct decomposition and passive lean reduction activity) to off-road diesel engine exhaust.

Soot—black and brown particles that absorb solar radiation—comes from two types of sources: fossil fuels such as diesel, coal, gasoline, jet fuel; and solid biofuels such as wood, manure, dung, and other solid biomass used for home heating and cooking around the world. Particle traps filter out soot particles from exhaust fumes.

The cars, two of which were produced in association with major OEMs (Ford and Hyundai/Kia), exhibit substantial environmental and fuel-efficient benefits through low-cost hybridization. The problem is, while needing to reduce emissions, it is necessary to keep production at a relatively low cost. 48V Batteries Hybrids'

The test engine for the paper was a 250cc single-cylinder unit with dual-camshaft-actuated reciprocating sleeve valves for induction and exhaust. Compression ratio was set at 15:1, and the fuel used was 87 octane gasoline. The sleeve valves are linearly actuated and seal on an angled valve seat. —Willcox et al. Willcox, M.,

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank. It is much more than that.

We net diesel-like efficiencies on this teeny gasoline engine. The Pinnacle engine using a sliding sleeve valve system: intake liner, exhaust liner, spark plug in the middle. We still have the same sort of power densities as the traditional engines. We don’t have the hit that the Atkinson cycles do. —Monty Cleeves.
